For a more premium dual-cab feel, the Amarok brings strong road manners and a tidy cabin. Current example: $29,990, around 146,896 km. Worth a look if you spend as much time on the motorway as you do on site.

Quick test-drive routine

  • Cold start: the idle should settle quickly and evenly.
  • Straight-line check: on a flat road the wheel sits centred, no drift.
  • Brakes: firm stop from 60–70 km/h with no shudder through the pedal.
  • Electrics: pair your phone, try the camera and sensors, check all windows and locks.
  • Paperwork: ask for service history, PPSR and the roadworthy provided by the yard.

How to choose without overthinking it

  1. Match the shape to your week: hatch for city, SUV for family gear, ute for towing and site work.
  2. Fit first: seat height, visibility and control layout matter more than a fancy option you’ll rarely use.
  3. History over extras: a clean logbook and consistent servicing usually beat gadgets on older metal.
